Tap at Avery Brewing Tap room Pours out a rich amber/brown topped with a small head. Aroma was over the top tons of sweetness syrup, caramel, pit fruit and some of the 15%. Taste was all of the above lots of sweetness, thick rich malts, pit fruit. After I had this I had to drink 4 cups of water to just clean out my mouth. Man this stuff was thick. I loved it. Pretty drinkable for 15% I would say.

Tap at brewery, GABF ’09.Pours a deep, thick, viscous amber with a rasin syrup, maple syrup, prune malt, and field fire and smoke nose. Flavor is full of fruity maple, melted sugar, and malt candy with earthy nuts in the finish. Feels like motor oil on the tongue. I’m hot for Sammy; lots of stuff going on with this guy.
